Positioned in KTM's atv motorcycle lineup, the 2010 KTM 450 SX ATV features a 449 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 97.0 x 60.8 mm (3.8 x 2.4 inches) with a 12.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the 450 SX ATV measures 165 kg (364 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,280 mm (50.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10.3-liter (2.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
